Cloverfield Ratings & Reviews
- kvyatkovskij2 maart 2026Nice, well-paced thriller. I liked it.
- Kevin Ward2 juli 2025Kids loved Godzilla Minus One, so I thought maybe they would get on with this one. I was kind of surprised they didn’t like the film itself all that much. My youngest really didn’t like the found footage aspect and my oldest really didn’t like the ending. But I have to say that after talking about the thematics of Godzilla being a representation of a nuclear bomb a few weeks ago, they were interested in scouring for the theme behind the movie here and very quickly latched onto 9/11 without prompting. W for my kids. And then my daughter started looking into what King Kong represents (that’s going to be a long convo). But it’s like it’s unlocked a new dimension of film appreciation for them which is cool. Wait to they find out it’s not just kaiju that can have deeper thematic symbolism.
- Rowan Krzysiak24 januari 2026Even with the short run-time I still felt it slightly overstayed its welcome but saying that, to execute on such a contrivance so, so well is commendable. The rawness of the action and the intensity of its sound brings some incredible moments. It's probably the best kaijuu movie there is.
- ayayron6 april 2025Top tier viral marketing campaign
- Johan Potgieter11 december 2025In my opinion this is one of the best found footage movies ever. I love the camera work and the characters. I watch it every few years and I'm never disappointed. Best in it's genre.
- JackdaRipper22 januari 2026its so peak.
- Freddie Rodriguez12 oktober 2025It's surprising how much of this film still holds up. The acting is convincing and the special effects don't look silly. All the handcam angles seem to be natural and if you told me the actor was holding the camera, I would believe you.
- Ethen Harrelson17 augustus 2025Inspired by Blair witch? The found footage is such a great movie style. Love it!
- pipanni22 juli 2025A 'found footage' movie with a big budget, "Cloverfield" works for me because at its heart is a romance movie. The hero is on a quest to save his loved one and nothing will divert him, not even a big monster tearing up the city. The only sour note is that the lead actor could be a whole lot more convincing, since most of the cast is.
- bigbyron12 juli 2025I love found footage. i watch it all. i havent watched this movie in years, and was pleasantly suprised when i rewatched it. if you love found footage, this movie is for you
- luukassalokannel29 juni 2025A bit biring but pretty solid
- Kevin Welkner17 juni 2025First person + alien invasion = great. Watched many times and will watch again
- Joe Knapp15 juni 2025While it may be considered artistic to make a movie through a shaky hand-held camera, it can be distracting. Movies like this, and the Blair Witch Project, are difficult to sit through, especially on the big screen. That being said, this movie is essentially a modern take on Godzilla with far better special effects. I might have enjoyed this movie more if it had been filmed on an iPhone. At least that camera has Steadycam-like motion control.
- Arniox21 november 2024Very good. Best if the cloverfield movies. Genuinely felt the fear of the characters.
